Nice sound from the video and who doesn't like a Vista Cruiser? One of the nicest wagons in my opinion.

I checked the AMA specs again on the W30 455 and I am in error on the HP/TQ which I gave for the non-W30 442 455.

The W30 455 was rated at 370HP @ 5,200 RPM's and 500TQ @ 3,600 RPM's, so the cam does move the power band higher. Available transmissions were the close ratio 4-speed and TH-400. Factory rear gearing was 3.42 or 3.91 with mandatory limited slip, and 3.23 only for the TH-400 with A/C. Dealer installed gear ratios included 4.33, 4.66, and 5.00.
